The patient experiences intermittent stomach pain, which worsens when hungry. They are particularly averse to cold and suffer daily agony. Treatment:
Sanli (3 liang) of Da Suan (Allium sativum Bulb).
Crush and extract the juice, then administer it orally. The patient suddenly vomits a single snake and is cured. The snake measures slightly more than three chi in length.

This condition is caused by Phlegm-Dampness stagnation. The patient's head and face suddenly swell to the size of a dou (a large container), and objects appear only two cun in size. There is no appetite for food, accompanied by groaning and drowsiness. Treatment:
Gua Di (Thladianthae Fructus) and Chi Xiao Dou (Adzuki Bean) each one liang.
Grind together into powder. Take one qian bi (approx. 2-3g). Separately, take Yi Xiang Chi (Prepared Soybean) one he, and boil with seven he of hot water until it resembles thin porridge. Strain to obtain the liquid. Mix the powder with the liquid and administer warm in one dose to induce vomiting.
After one dose, the swelling of the head and eyes subsides; after two doses, vision returns to normal. Subsequently use:
Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma), Bai Zhu (Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma), Fu Ling (Poria) each three qian; Gan Cao (Licorice Root) one qian; Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) five fen; Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber) three qian.
Decoct in water and take two doses for spontaneous recovery.

This syndrome was contracted from eating carp. The patient suffers severe central chest oppression and inability to eat. Recommended treatment:
Ban Xia (Pinelliae Tuber), Gan Cao (Licorice Root), Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma) each three qian; Gua Di (Thladianthae Fructus) seven pieces; Huang Lian (Coptidis Rhizoma), Chen Pi (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) each one qian.
Decoct in water, take warm in one dose. Immediately, several sheng of worms should be vomited; their heads and faces are red, and tails resemble fish roe.
Note: This is the formula used by Master Hua to treat Chen Deng, the Grand Administrator of Guangling. Chen Deng had previously suffered from this syndrome. After curing him, Master Hua firmly instructed him to abstain from alcohol and sexual indulgence to achieve permanent cure; otherwise, he would die within two years from abdominal fullness. Chen Deng did not heed this advice, and indeed, three years later, Master Hua's prediction came true. (Annotated by Sun Simiao)

Cow plague spreads extremely violently. If one cow contracts the disease, nearby cows will inevitably perish in succession. Symptoms include the cow lowering its head and drooping its ears, reduced food intake, panting and fright, flowing nasal discharge and tears, initially dry and hard stools followed by diarrhea, and rotting spots inside the mouth. These indicate an epidemic condition. Urgently burn Zhen An Xi Xiang (True Benzoin Resin) in the cowshed; if the cow inhales the fragrance, it recovers. Alternatively, take three sheng of Ta Shi (Lutra Lutra Excrement), pour boiling water over it to extract two sheng of juice, and administer orally for recovery. However, the above two remedies are extremely difficult to obtain. Therefore, commonly used medicines are:
Ya Zao (Gleditsiae Sinensis Spina), Xi Xin (Asari Radix et Rhizoma), Chuan Wu Tou (Aconiti Radix Preparata), Cao Wu Tou (Aconiti Kusnezoffii Radix Preparata), Xiong Huang (Realgar).
Take equal parts of these five herbs, grind into powder. Add a small amount of She Xiang (Moschus). Blow five or six fen into the cow's nostrils for recovery.
